Mars falls in Cancer, so on the surface, it is not a good place for Mars to be placed in.  However, it has nocturnal Triplicity rulership being in a water sign (Cancer), and also dignity by terms between 0-7 degrees, which translates to 11th - 22nd August.

The moon, being Mars' ruler, will be involved in a solar and lunar eclipse on 12th and 28th August respectively so watch out for how your temperament and action can be influenced on these significant dates.

When Mars is in Cancer, the focus is on home matters.  It could manifest positively as channeling your energy into home matters, spending time on renovation projects, and connecting with family members.  The negative manifestation is feeling depleted, angry or depressed as you allow the past to drain you.  Or put simply, when you are too busy channelling your energy on your past, unresolved issues, there's not enough power left to cope with the demands of your present time.  If you can transcend over the issue and reclaim your power by finding the lesson within, then you can harness that new found strength to fuel your current life.
